- Leave the name of the tty driver alone, but add the flag
TTY_DRIVER_NO_DEVFS to the flag field of the tty_driver.
- Register the tty_driver at driver initialization, but call
tty_register_devfs with the minor number of the device when the device
is plugged in (and tty_unregister_devfs when the device is removed.)
In my testing tonight, this seemed to work just fine.
Do you (or anyone else) see any problems with this?
Thanks,
